    I am a huge music nut, but I would rather be deaf then blind. You can still drive a car and be deaf, though you would actually have to watch the gauges to shift rather then just listening to the RPM.

    I'd go blind before deaf.

    I can deal with darkness, but not silence.

    Well, being that I'm blind and deaf on my left side, I'm not sure which I would chose. I mean...I think if I had to chose, I'd probably go fully deaf. Too many smiling faces I'd miss if I was fully blind.

    Imo I'd go with losing my sight. When you go deaf you not only lose you sense of hearing but you also lose the ability to communicate. Sign language is an impractical and and almost useless form of speech. inb4 writing down everything you do

    I'd rather not be any, both are really important factors in my life right now and I couldn't see myself living without them.

    I'd rather be blind. Being stuck in the dark forever sucks, yeah, but think of everything you'd miss.

    Music, conversations with friends/family. Truth be told, I'd miss seeing my girlfriend's beautiful face, but I'd miss hearing her voice more.Sight < sound for me.

    Deaf would be fine sign language would just take awhile to get the hang of.

    @ the OP,

    You should make a poll out of this!

    I'd personally choose to be blind. I don't think I could stand being able to play my guitar and not hear the sound resonating from it.

    Dead. I love music as much as I love sight.
    You can tell WoW changed the MMO for good when players started complaining about the amount of time they sink, into a time sink.

    Please tell me you did that on purpose. I'd vote to be deaf.

    Poll - deaf will win by far..

    I'd be deaf because you can still communicate and enjoy life, TBH I have both sight problems(miopy) and I also can't hear THAT WELL. But I'd choose my long-range blurry sight everyday over hearing.

    L.E.: Look at Beethoven. He deafened in the end and still created masterpieces..

    Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles are/were blind.

    I'd choose to become deaf. Music and voices will always play in this mind of mine.

    Going with Deaf here for sure

    Being able to see and feel would be the worst two senses to lose for me. I love music but I could handle being deaf. If I was forced to choose what senses to lose my pick would be taste/smell. I love to taste new foods and drinks, but I could see the loss of such a sense an easy way to control weight as well. If it doesn't taste then prob I will just eat to fulfill my hunger then stop.

    Deaf or Blind. I choose Deaf.
